Tricks and tips for getting the perfect Rodanthe vacation property experience:

Sticking to a budget:

• In the Hatteras area, The earlier you can book a vacation rental, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holidays such as Christmas and Thanksgiving are excellent times to plan and reserve your vacation home.
• Summertime is high season in the Hatteras area. Reserving a rental home in the Fall or Spring is a great way to save on your vacation rental. Rates are lower, and you'll find a better selection of desirable homes.
• Some owners offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Check with your host or property manager to see if special offers are available for your family.
• Property managers usually offer guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which generally costs anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed trip time as a result of personal medical-related catastrophes or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel or extra fuel expenses. Trip insurance might be a a welcome relief if the unforeseen occurs. Ask your host for program terms and fees.
• Often, property management companies supply Hatteras area visitors guides that include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship between the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Use filters to narrow your search:

• Start by selecting a vacation week and a maximum budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your group needs. Semi-Oceanfront, Dog Friendly Home with Pool, & Hot Tub has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is normally accessible on booking pages. If not, reach out to the property owner before you reserve your home. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which usually includes pull-out couches. You will need to establish what is suitable for your trip.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and some don't. Allowable types of family pet, weight and breeds may be restricted, and added costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• If there's an individual Hatteras destination you long to visit, search for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your needs.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

More tips for your visit:

• Take a copy of the owner's phone number and arrival/departure procedures for your rental.
• Property managers are available to help! Feel free to ask any questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Ensure you protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are away, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately alert the host. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, surrounding homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting late-night noise limits and parking policies can make a stay significantly more pleasurable.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local resident! Locals can often help. Who better to ask where to book the best tours, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed everything on check-out day. Re-check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden belongings. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Please make sure to walk through the rental one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, ensure that you take photos and video of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a great vacation? Many rental home management companies make it easy for customers to provide reviews. If your rental and/or host was terrific, they always love to hear your praise. If anything was wrong and they failed to address it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your feedback.
